The Jaguars were hot to trot for Tebow, a Jacksonville native, during the offseason. They lost out to the Jets, who traded a fourth- and a sixth-round pick in the 2012 draft for the former Denver Broncos starter. The Jets convinced Tebow he'd see playing time in New York, but he's just a marginal part of the offense, playing about eight snaps per game.

The Jets haven't found a way to tap Tebow's natural gifts, but they publicly say they're committed to keeping him in Florham Park.

Gabbert, meanwhile, has bigger fish to fry. Jacksonville's second-year starter is struggling to win games in the team's typically stagnant offense. We've seen growth, but adding Tebow to the mix won't help Gabbert's development any more than it has helped Mark Sanchez in New York.
